Boyd...Factory Falls


See Other Photo Versions

Description: Factory Falls is a RUNNABLE class V+ rapid. It's a 12' drop above a rock shelf that slants into a mushroom shaped boulder...probably dropping a total of around 15-20 ft. The river left side is full of wood and creates a giant caved out seive. Although it is runnable...it is not worth the time or the risk. There's several nice seal launches off the rocks into it's washout
